Border control could get harder under this President too.Being in construction for about 30 years leads me to any problem that could occur and your ability to be the or at least find someone that can do what needs to be done.

Often I have seen out of state Investors enlist the assistance of a real estate professional who knows the area and properties and can offer their expert advice including videos pointing out both positives and negative but again not without having an inspection contingency as part of the agreement.

Hello BP Texas,Following the advise of our BP podcast overlords, GO FIND DEALS & WORRY ABOUT THE REST LATER.Ive built a monster of a lead generator, dont know what to do to close the deal.looking for a partner who would take half of my deals and show me what to do. 

Craigslist can be another source for leads, if you look for mom and pop landlords renting units.

I have a well paying job working on the road sometimes 45 days straight 7 days a week with no idea of if or when I will be going home. it's been very time demanding to the extreme of barely being able to listen to podcasts, read, or even research and analyze possible leads.

Househunt.com seems popular for buyer leads and has been around a long time.

If anyone would like to work on this with me to try to find potential 'good deals' in non 'war zone' areas or if anyone [@Ned Carey] could provide a few leads from this overflow list, I'm all ears and willing to do legwork to check out the properties, etc.
